The throwout bearing is bad. the throwout attaches to the clutch fork and presses into the clutch pressure plate when clutch is depressed. You will need to replace this and complete clutch assembly. Make sure that you have the flywheel turned while clutch is removed.

Why is neutral difficult to find sometimes when engine is running?

That's the enduring 'sticky plates' problem in the clutch basket. The clutch plates sit in oil and as the oil gets older it can break down leaving sticky deposits. More commonly the plates wear to a polished finish which causes then to stick together. Practice this: Engine running, clutch in, put the stationary bike in second. Brakes ON, find the clutch bite point and short rev (blip) the engine against the bite. As the revs drop, quickly pull the clutch right in and half press the gear lever. That will be neutral then!

Your Honda Prelude 1992 with a new clutch won't engage into gear what is your problem?

If it will go into gear when the engine is off but not when the engine is running, the clutch is not disengaging. It could be the clutch, possibly warped or put in wrong, or it could be the hydraulic clutch mechanism.


Will a manual transmission car start in neutral?

Of course! As long as the clutch is depressed. It well start in any gear. You just won't have enough rpm's in the other gears to keep it running. Unless you the the engine before you release the clutch. I don't suggest doing so if you are an unexperienced driver.
